Industrial era/new world power
Tomtit [17]

American imperialism” is a term that refers to the economic, military, and cultural influence of the United States on other countries. First popularized during the presidency of James K. Polk, the concept of an “American Empire” was made a reality throughout the latter half of the 1800s. During this time, industrialization caused American businessmen to seek new international markets in which to sell their goods. In addition, the increasing influence of social Darwinism led to the belief that the United States was inherently responsible for bringing concepts such as industry, democracy, and Christianity to less developed “savage” societies. The combination of these attitudes and other factors led the United States toward imperialism.

The American Anti-Imperialist League was an organization established in the United States on June 15, 1898, to battle the American annexation of the Philippines as an insular area. The League also argued that the Spanish-American War was a war of imperialism camouflaged as a war of liberation. The anti-imperialists opposed the expansion because they believed imperialism violated the credo of republicanism, especially the need for “consent of the governed.” They did not oppose expansion on commercial, constitutional, religious, or humanitarian grounds; rather, they believed that the annexation and administration of third-world tropical areas would mean the abandonment of American ideals of self-government and isolation—ideals expressed in the U.S. Declaration of Independence, George Washington ‘s Farewell Address, and Abraham Lincoln ‘s Gettysburg Address. The Anti-Imperialist League represented an older generation and was rooted in an earlier era; they were defeated in terms of public opinion, the 1900 election, and the actions of Congress and the president because most younger Progressives who were just coming to power supported imperialism.

Identify major efforts to reform America during the progressive era
grigory [225]

<u>Major efforts to reform America during the progressive era :</u>

The Progressive Era was a time of boundless social activism and political change over the United States that spread over the 1890s to the 1920s. Numerous activists joined endeavors to change neighborhood government, state funded instruction, prescription, account, protection, industry, railways, temples, and numerous different regions. Progressives changed, professionalized and made "logical" the sociologies, particularly history, financial aspects, and political theory. The four significant objectives of the dynamic development are:

  • Protecting social welfare.
  • Economic Reform.  
  • Economic efficiency.
  • Promoting Moral Improvement.

Two of the most significant results of the Progressive Era were the Eighteenth and Nineteenth Amendments, the first banned the assembling, deal, or transport of liquor, and the second emancipated ladies with the privilege to cast a ballot.
